‘Opec not seeking price range’

Published September 11, 2016

ALGIERS: Opec is not seeking a definite price range for crude but wants to stabilise the market at a meeting in Algiers later this month, Opec Secretary-General Mohammed Barkindo said, according to Algerian state-run APS news agency on Saturday.

He made his comments after meeting late on Friday with the Algerian and Saudi oil ministers in Paris.

“The oil market must stabilise with less volatile prices. This is what we are trying to do though our consultations, restoring a sustainable stability for the market,” he was reported as saying.
